(Don Boudreaux)
Below the fold is a comment that I left on this EconLog post by Bryan Caplan. My comment is in response to a comment left, on the same post, by Thaomas – who, I believe, is the Thomas Hutcheson who sometimes comments here at Cafe Hayek. Thaomas and Thomas Hutcheson frequently complain that libertarian and libertarian-leaning scholars are too ideological – a stance that causes us to unscientifically refuse to use cost-benefit analyses as often as a good scientific, objective disposition requires. And the typical example of this unscientific disposition that Thaomas and Thomas Hutcheson point to is the ‘libertarian’ analysis of minimum wages.
